Youth With A Mission is a missionary organization whose goal is to know God and to make Him known. Our desire is that our lifestyle—living, learning and working together will support this goal.
Who can apply to volunteer at Holmsted Manor?
We would love to invite people who have never done a Discipleship Training School but are interested in giving their time and skills to what God is doing through YWAM and specifically Holmsted Manor.
You can serve for as short as two weeks to as long as 90 days*. You will be placed in a team, working along-side long term staff. You will live and work in a cross-cultural environment working with people from many different nations, ages and walks of life.
Why come and volunteer at Holmsted Manor?
We want you to feel part of our YWAM family so we encourage our volunteers to participate in base events such as worship gatherings and socials: prayer times, staff meeting, worship times, community meetings and other fellowship times. Many wonderful volunteers come year after year because they’ve found it’s a challenging and spiritually refreshing experience — and a great way to make new friends from around the world. Our desire at YWAM Holmsted Manor is to connect Christians globally. If you have a heart for missions — and especially Youth With A Mission — come join our short-term volunteer programs.
We recommend that you speak English on a conversational level. For health and safety reasons, you will need to be able to understand work instructions, and connect with others in community life. At this time we are unable to offer specific English-language support – but if you’re want to improve your English this is a great environment.
